James Bajeck is Home From the
Phillipines to Visit Relatives.
James Bajeck. a Plattsniouth boy
who has been serving in the army for
ihn nast six years is at home with
his mother, having come back Sun
Oay from the long term of service
in the Philippines. Jimmy is look
ing fine and feels Just as he looks,
lie is bronzed and hearty after sev
eral years in the service and looks
like a man thoroughly capable of en
joying life in far lands. He has been
through a number of branches of
service including the infantry, the
artillery and the musical service. As
a musician he ranks very high, hav
ing Inherited much of the family tal
ent in that respect. He carries a
very fine discharge from the service
fceing rated as to character "very
good." He declares the Philippines
to be a garden spot and things Manila
to be about as fine a, place as ex'.stb
on the globe. He says the soldiers
are treated very nicely and are look
ed on as welcome among the Fili
pinos. Jimmy i3 pleased to be at
home again, notwithstanding the
..... .. I
many advantages wnicn tne lsianus
fceem to possess ana ne minus i iaus-
mouth a fine place to have a home
in. His thrift is exemplified in the
fact that he was able to place Bev-
eral hundred dollars to his credit in
a good, reliable bank ln this city
and still have enough left to see hIa I
friends wltn. it has been many years
Kince he was home ana nis many gooa
. . . I
xriencis are giau 10 see mm nam.
He expects to remain several weeks
and take a merited rest. He Came
... I 1. I
over from Manila in the transport
Logan and on the way over particl-
pated in a nne concert given ai uie
Youngs hotel in nonoiuiu, nawan.
He declares that city to be one of
the finest on the globe. It lies pret
tlly and shows up well from the
ocean. Speaking of Uncle Sam's pre
paration for war, Jimmy says that
Manila is now fortified so that no
one will slip into the harbor and
bonbard the city. Honolulu Is in the
same shape. He says that Japan is
really cowed and terrified at the pre
paratlons which are being made for
war by the United States government
and that nation is keeping pretty
close under cover, lie does not favor
war nor does he believe victory would
be easy over Japan but he says the
general comment In the east is that
war is inevitable and that the Japi
will insist on a whipping before they
become good. Jimmy served two
years and nine months ln the Phil
ippines and he should be capable of
knowing what he talks of.
Commencement KxeniKes.

mencement exercises this year will

joyable ever witnessed ln this city.

Sec. 72, Chap. 18, p. 248 Laws of
1901, Charter of City, provides that
the city council may revoke, drug-
gists permits at pleasure, and pro-
vldes that the Bale of liquor may be
prohibited or restrained hv ornl-
nance. The city council seems to
have a legal discretion in the matter
of granting and revoking druggist's
permits. The court suggests that the
council proceed at once to pass a
Droner ordinance lavln dnwn th ro.
qulrements for a druggist's permit
and the grounds for revocation.
Druggists should not sell lntoxicat-
ing liquors except on prescription
of a regular physician, and adequate
punishment for violation of the or-
dlnance should be provided.
Under the police power of the
state deleeated to tlm rltv ih -it
council has ample power to regulate
or prohibit the sale of intoxicating
liquors by drnggists in the city. If
the council will do its duty in this

ESTIMABLE LADY

Mrs. D. B. Ebersole Died at Her
Home in This City. Sunday
May 22, 1910.
DIED Ebersole, Mrs. D. B., at her
home in Plattsniouth, Nebraska, on
Sunday, May 22, 1910, aged 44
years, 5 months and 6 days, of
cancer of the stomach. Funeral
Tuesday afternoon, May 24, 1910,
from the Christian church, Kev.
W. L. Austin conducting the serv
ives. After a lingering illness from that
most dreaded of diseases, cancer,
Mrs. D. B. Ebersole passed into rest
yesterday. For months past her folks
and her many friends had despaired
of her life and the best physicians
had passed upon her case with no
encouragement, so the announce
ment of her death came to them as
no surprise. The deepest sympathy
exists in this community for the be
reaved husband and children who
lose in her a most devoted wife and
mother. And the same smypathy
extends to the brothers, sister and
father of this most excellent woman.
During her lifetime which was all
spent within the confines of this city,
tha rioppnsff1 had mn.de herself thor
0UEhly beloved and respected. She
was a woman of the greatest woman-
y vlrtue8 and the best qualities. Of
h h Chl.l8tlan character, of lofty
aims, she had had made herself one
Lf the most loved of women in the
cltv. In her death the community
loses one of Its best and most use-
ful members and her many friends
suffer an irreparable loss.
Mrs. Ebersole was born ln this
city on December 16, 1865, and spent
her elrlhnnd in this rltv. ristne to
woman's proudest domain here
among the many friends who are left
behind. She met and was wooed by
Mr. Ebersole in this city and on June
11. 1896. she entered unon married
life with him in this city. Of the
union two children were born, both
of whom survive he&. Their ages
are 14 and 6 years respectively. She
18 also survived by her father, George
Kroehler, and four brothers and one
slBter, the brothers being Louis, An-
drew, George and John Kroehler,
and the sister belnf Mrs. Susie Neu
man who lives in Chicago. The
mother and one sister of the deceas
ed have preceded her to the better
land several years since.
The funeral of this most esteemed
and beloved lady will take place to-
morrow (Tuesday) afternoon from

Beautiful Sight Presented to the
People Last Evening.
The eclipse of the moon last night
attracted a great deal of attention
and it was an excellent one, the night
being highly favorable for observing
it. The eclipse started about 8:30
and the moon entered the shadow of
the earth about 9:30. The totality
commenced at a few moments after
11 p. m., and continued almost to
12 o'clock, being central at ll:30t.
Contrary to expectation the moon
was not darkened nearly as much as
expected, it shining with a bright cop
per color which attracted much atten
tion. Many remained up until late in
the night to witness the entire pheno
mena. Those who saw the eclipse also got
a good view of Halley's comet which
shone in the west, being a sort of
hazy, nebulous star. There was a
faint tail visible stretching upward
toward the zenith for about fifteen or
twenty degrees from the nucleus. The
comet was a distinct disappointment
to most people and it did not nearly
show up as bright as it did when in
the east. However, many watched it
with a great deal of curiosity. It is
a little south of west and about one
third of the way up the heavens. It
Is expected to be visible for probably
ten days or so but to gradually grow
smaller and finally disappear.
Many hoped to see more of the
comet after the moon had entered the
eclipse but this did not have much
effect as the comet had set before the
eclipse became total. The combina
tion of an eclipse of the moon with
the comet ln the heavens is something
rather unusual and all over the world
scientists watched the two phenon-
menons with great interest. Little
new was learned, however, it is be
lieved as no unusual characterlsts de
veloped during the evening and night.
Secures Merited Election.
Miss Blanche Robertson who has
been teaching for the past year in

there Miss Robertson has given ex
cellent satisfaction and the board is
well pleased with her work. She
has a natural talent for teaching and
under her direction the. pupils have
made splendid advances. Her many
friends in this city will extend their
congratulations to her upon her
marked success.
liaises Fund for Klliott.
Thomas South several days since
started a subscription paper to raise
funds for the relief of John Elliott,
the farmer living north of the city,
who recently lost all his household
goods and his dwelling from fire
Within a very short time he had col
lected a fund amounting to $42.25,
which he turned over to Mr. Elliott
That gentleman was much pleased at
the donation and returned his thanks
to those who so kindly remembered
him In his misfortune.
One Dose for Coughs
Children cough at night? Give them Ayer's Cherry Pec
toral. Often a single dose at bedtime will completely
control the cough. Good for any one with a cold or cough.
Good for easy cases, hard cases; good for acute cases,
chronic cases. Ask your doctor to tell you, honestly and
frankly, just what he thinks of this old standard remedy.
No alcohol in this cough medicine, .c. Aw Co.. Lowell, Mass.
A lazy liver makes a lazy boy. An active brain demand an active liver. No better
laxative for boys and girls than Ayer's Pills. Ask your doctor about them. He knows.

Improves Barber Shop.
Clayton Rosencrans has recently
been making a large number of im
provements at his barber shop in the
Hotel Riley and now has a shop which
will compare favorably with any in
this part of the country. While he
has not made all the improvements
he intends, he has gotten a great
many of them in shape and the shop
puts up a neat and attractive appear
ance. He has had two fine French
plate glass mirors put in, one on
each side of the room. That which
the chairs face is a large, handsome
panel glass fifty-four Inches square
in sections. It is a very ornamental
glass and makes a wonderful im
provement in the shop, both as to
light and as to neatness. On the
other side of the room the mirror is
twenty-two Inches in height and four
teen feet ln length, both being set in
handsome quartered oak frames. In
addition to these ha ban also nut in
two new chairs of the latest model
and design. These chairs have slid
ing seats and the arms remain stat
ionary. The seat is or morroco while
the woodwork is of oak in the same
coloring with the mirrors. The
chairs are pronounced by those fa
miliar with such things as among
the finest and most up to date manu
factured. In addition to these there
are a number of other Improvements
which altogether result in making
the shop the best one any city of
this size has in the state. By keep
ing in the front rank of live business
men Mr. Rosencrans has helped very
largely ln promoting the welfare of
local business Interests and his en
terprise deserves the success which it
has attained.
Wanted Unique Action.
Judge Archer had a peculiar mo
tion offered him by A. N. Sullivan
this morning which he declined tc
file. Sometime since Charles H.
Bailey was placed under arrest for
disturbing the peace at the home of
his sister, Mrs. Harriet Garrison.
He was brought down town by De
puty Sheriff Manspeaker and Chief
of Police Ralney, and on the way
down he was 6truck by the deputy
for some language which he used
teward the officer. After being
down town he was arraigned before
Judge Archer and entered a plea of
guilty to the disorderly conduct
charge, Judge Archer assessing him
the minimum fine of $1 and costs
This he paid and was released. Af
terwards he concluded to prosecute
Manspeaker for assault and to have
the officer removed from office lf
this was possible. The plea of guilty
which he had entered stood In the
way, however, and he retained A. N.
Sullivan to represent him and try to
have the fine set aside. To this end
the attorney wantea to file a motion
supported by affidavits which set
forth that the plea of guilty was ob
tained by fraud, and other statutory
grounds for setting aside the verdict
of a Jury in Justice court. The mo
tion was rather unique and attracted
considerabe attention from attor
neys as it brings up a new point in
connection with pleading guilty to
an offense against the city ordi
nances. Attorney Sullivan was un
able to convince the court it should
be filed.
